What is WebNews?
WebNews is about feeding information (called posts) out to users of the internet. It is based on the website; and is best thought of as being similar to the News. And like the News; it’s all about NOW; something relevant to the moment rather than an old newsletter.

If you look at any of the news websites, be it TV or printed – you will find a button whereby you can subscribe to receive items to your web browser or other program (including email).

This is called RSS – the icon looks like this:


If you find an item that you would like to be informed about – be it business news or anything else – then you can subscribe to the item (which is called a feed)
As you are using your computer – it will seek out these feeds that you have subscribed to and look for NEW updates on this item. If there is something new; then it will display the item as a short summary; if it interests you; then you can read the whole item.

 

Why would I want to use WebNews?
It is a means of communication with your customers; either current or potential future customers.

Isn’t this just like a newsletter?

No, there are several big differences

WebNews can occur at anytime; it is not a monthly, bi-monthly form of communication

Its all about the timing

 

It is about specific items – maybe a new product or special – a news letter is quite broad

It is short and to the point; creating interest

 

Customers can choose what they subscribe for – some may want to hear about the specials all the time; others don’t (and hence if you send newsletters about specials they may well just delete them)

It is even more targeted

 

WebNews can create discussions about a product, generating interest on a open website

Generating interest and gaining more exposure on the internet

 

WebNews doesn’t require you to collect names and email addresses

It is a lot more private for the customer

 

WebNews doesn’t get caught in customers email spam filters

As this system by-passes the email filters we can ensure that more items are delivered
